treasury of the institution and, if
commercialism does not exist, the
players receive no monetary compen-
sation.
But it is through the efforts of the
eleven men on the football team that
a university receives funds for the,
realization of a program that will give
athletics to thousands of students
that would otherwise not be given the
elaborate opportunity of physical
recreation. The $250,000 needed to
erect the new women's field house and
grounds for the outdoor sports comes
from the proceeds of football games,"

SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1927
Night Editor-STANFORD N. PHELPS
The new minor sports building for inA
tramural activities will be built upon
the earnings of football. If that is'1
commercialism, if the University is
commercializing football,-then weI
I are glad for it. Thousands of stu-
dents will be given recreation for the;
building of a strong, vigorous bodyt
through such "commercialism." I
The University finds it necessary
to ask the State Legislature for near-
ly $5,000,000 for the erection of new
buildings. But the athletic depart-,
ment of the University does not find
it necessary to ask for any consider-I
able outside help. It is the only de-
partment in Michigan that pays for
itself. Through p. non-commercialized,
treatment of football, Michigan is
giving athletics to all. Football isI
giving Michigan the largest and finest;
athletic plant in the world.
FARM RELIEF VETOED
As was generally predicted from his
previous stand, President Coolidge has
vetoed the McNary-Haugen farm re-
lief bill submitted to him by Con-
gress. His message surprised even
the opponents of the bill by the ex-
tent of the objections which he laid
against the nieasure. In addition to
pointing out again the economic
dangers and discrimination which it
would produce, the President pro-
nounced the bill unconstitutional in
several of its vital aspects and added
a supporting statement by Attorney-
General Sargent.
Great interest is attached to the
veto for the effect which it will have
upon the President's political career
and those of others. Though there
is no chance of overriding the exe-
cutive veto, Congressional farm lead-
ers will attempt it as a sign that they
have not surrendered, but that they
will carry the issue through the next
Congress and into the presidential
campaign of 1928. Mid-western Re-
publicans, it is reported, have already
started the presidential boom of Frank
0. Lowden, former governor of Illi-
nois. Likewise, Vice President Dawes,
who helped to put the bill through
the Senate, is regarded as presidential
timber for the Middle West. Until the
situation becomes more advanced,
however, it will be impossible to
judge the power which these move-
ments will have in opposing the
present party leader.
As far as obtaining farm relief is;
concerned, the present situation is
analogous to that of last spring when
the House defeated the first McNary-
Haugen bill. At both times, the agri-
cultural interests, refusing any othert
method of aid, staked everything upon
enacting the McNary-Haugen meas-t
ure. With a sustained presidential
veto a foregone conclusion for the
present session, and a strong possi-t
bility for both sessions of the nextI
Congress, it would seem that the rep-t
resentatives of the farm districts1
would have better cared for the in-t
terests of their constituents if they]
had accepted one of the alternatives
favorable to the President.I

SPORTSMANSHIP
Probably because of the nature of'
the game, particularly the greater
opportunities'for scoring, the attitude
displayed by spectataors at basket-
ball games often drops below the high
plane of sportsmanship shown at
other intercollegiate sport events.
Though they have generally conducted
themselves very well, Michigan stu-
dents have occasionally been lacking
in their behavior toward the officials
and the members. of the visiting teams
in some of .the more crucial periods
of this season's games.
Concernhig the v:.lue of sportsman-
ship there can be no doubt. In a
contest between two universities, the
test of the powers of the respective
teams is a minor one when contrasted
with that of the. sportsmanship dis-
played by the players and students of
the two institutions.
Any actions falling short of the
highest standards should not be tol-
erated. Its spirit is not expected in
the members of the team even though1
they are under much more strain
than the spectators. Moreover, it is
not exhibited in other athletic con-
tests, particularly those on the grid-
iron. With the exercise of self-control,
it could be curbed about the basket-
ball floor.
Tomorrow night, Michigan will meet
Illinois here in a crucial game. It is
hoped, of course, that she will retain
her position in the Conference race.
It is mucl more desired, however,'
that Michigan will maintain and en-
hance her reputation for sportsman-
ship through the respectful attitude
of the team's backers.
FOOTBALL PAYS
Michigan will have the finest and
largest athletic plant in the world.-
This fall the campus will see another
athletic building giving opportunities
to women in exercise and competitive
sports. Next year the men will be
given a field house for general recrea-
tion in non-Varsity sports. Coach'
Yost will have his dream realized-
"Athletics for all" will be a reality.
The University Will be known as an
institution where intellectual and
physical education go hand in hand.

alized through the earnings of a sport

Recreational Ceiiter
More and more, Granger's is becoming a
habit for those students who appreciate a few hours
of recreation over a week-end, or those who enjoy
a little dancing in the middle of the week.
Our Friday and Saturday night dances draw
the la: jest crowds but the attendance on Wednes-
day nights has increased stcadily during the past
few years, until now it fulfills a definite need on the
campus. There is never a . jam on Wednesday
nights and the same peppy music is furnished as on
the week ends. All things considered, this
Wednesdcay night dance very justly deserves its
popularity.
All the equipment at Granger 's is placed
there with one.,idea in mind-to make our patrons
as comfortable as possible. For your convenience
we maintain the rest rooms, lobby space, and soda

AMERICAN AGGRESSiON
To The Editor:
The only remarkable aspect of the
resolution passed by the Detroit Vet-
erans of Foreign Wars and published
Wednesday morning, is that in 1927
some men are still willing publicly to
commit themselves to such obsolete
militaristic doctrines. In so far as

is
the incapacity of military men for
national leadership. It suffices to
prove the reactionary spirit of their
proposals that Mr. Calvin Coolidge,
a politician whose conservatism will
never be impugned, has been unable
to stomach them. Theirs is the policyG
of the jingoistic Chicago Tribune
which seeks to engender in the pop-
ular mind the conviction that war is
an inevitable mode of settling inter-
national differences, and is always
just around the corner. It is this sort
of leadership which had led America
to stand aloof for seven years from thei
greatest enterprise ever undertaken
to put international society on a se-
cure foundation, an enterprise which
ie, of all nations, did most to set inj
motion. It is this sort of leadership'
which has led a majority of the Amer-
ican people to their present belief
that we must persist in refusing to
join a society of nations which Mr.
Elihu Root recently said "has been
rendering the best service in the cause
of peace in the history of civilization;
incomparably the best."

they would only move the School of
Music over near the band house, they
would drown each other out and the
rest of us would have peace.
